The Feast of Belshazzar, 1705
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating painting by Italian artist Andrea Celesti, belonging to the Venetian School. This masterpiece can be found in the esteemed collection of the State Hermitage in St. Petersburg, Russia. The painting depicts an opulent scene from ancient Babylonian history, as described in the Bible's Book of Daniel. The grandeur and decadence of King Belshazzar's feast are vividly portrayed through Celesti's skilled use of oil on canvas. The rich colors and intricate details bring to life this momentous event that took place over three centuries ago. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back in time to witness the extravagant banquet where divine intervention occurred. The tension is palpable as Belshazzar and his guests revel in their excesses while unaware of their impending doom. Sergei Ivanovich Gribkov, a renowned Russian painter from the 19th century, captured this stunning image through fine art photography. His expertise allows us to appreciate every brushstroke and nuance present within Celesti's original work. This print serves as a testament to both artists' talents and offers viewers an opportunity to own a piece of history within their personal collection or admire it for its artistic value alone.
